Great art speaks powerfully, inspires fresh thinking, and connects us to our past.

Picturing America, an exciting new initiative from the National Endowment for the Humanities, brings masterpieces of American art into classrooms and libraries nationwide. Through this innovative program, students and citizens will gain a deeper appreciation of our country’s history and character through the study and understanding of its art.

The Picturing America Gallery has been designed as a Flash experience. Flash player is required to view the interactive gallery. It appears that your computer does not currently have this player to view the site. Click on the link below to download a free Flash player.
